More about our host city:
New Orleans is nationally recognized for their extraordinary progress in alleviating homelessness. The city’s efforts to end veteran homelessness show ingenuity, creativity and dedication. Over the past two years, veteran homelessness dropped 66 percent, a fact made all the more impressive given the city’s spike in homelessness after Hurricane Katrina.

Earlier this summer, Mayor Mitch Landrieu announced the City of New Orleans’ drive to be the first city in the country to end all veteran homelessness by 2014. “The President sent out a clarion call that this is not who we are as a nation and that we need to come together as one people to make sure that all the veterans have what they need, from housing to health care to jobs,” Mayor Landrieu said at a ceremony on the 4th of July. New Orleans has already shown this dedication as an active member of the VA’s 25 Cities Initiative. This effort is an example of the success possible when a community merges ending veteran homelessness into its overall homelessness plan.

New Orleans provides us with fitting surroundings for the NCHV Housing Summit to discuss what is possible as we strive to ensure affordable housing access for all veterans experiencing homelessness. Representatives from New Orleans have been invited to share their strategies, victories and challenges with Summit attendees.
